India Today
A new report shows how many online users do not take their passwords too seriously and how easy it is for hackers to break into these passwords. Here is a look at the most common passwords in India and how you can create a strong one for yourself.
Passwords are often the most important line of defence against threat actors online. This is also the reason why any online service that you sign up for suggests you create a strong password filled with alphabets, numbers and even characters. It seems like people are not always keen on following this practice diligently.
A new report by Nordpass reveals just how many people can be clumsy with their security passwords online. With this, the report sheds light on how easy it is for hackers to break these passwords and take over an account. The situation is so grim, that within India, as many as 62 of the most common passwords can be broken into in less than a second.
